I think its about time this glitch ended (zone-anywhere glitch)
Big_Daddy
I wanna go to Pre Searing and stay there and forget all that has happened
BenjZee
if only that was possible. see pre-searing people cant visit the hall 
Lol wouldn't that of been funny though if people were still camping in there halls since that glitch....we could have lvl 20 paragon, dervish, ritualist and assasins in pre searing.
I was just talking about the little tutorial places for the other games.

I can't believe there are people trying to argue that the glitch should be ignored because it doesn't negatively affect people. First of all, a game that doesn't require you to actually play it to win is not a game that lasts very long. Secondly, it's a glitch, not a feature, and will be fixed. It's only a matter of time.

Actually, this is a big deal..
People could create a new character, let him get run to the last mission of Factions/Nightfall, complete the mission with lvl20 friends and then receive Amulet of Mists/Book of Secrets and make a lot of money selling these..
I'm probably an idiot for typing this, because people will now start to get ideas, but let's hope Anet fixes this asap..

Um there needs to be a market for those amulets and I doubt you could sell more than 10 a day tops. Lots of people make more than 100k a day.
Also I think Anet should make things less rubbish after going through them more than once. Hell I play this game as 3D chatroom, it's not much more.

On-topic: Bans are necessary for people who abuse the glitches of the game. I didn't even know this exploit existed until I read the update. Now, I read it on here that it still works. I hated when people did the duplicating with the Armbraces. Not everyone was banned from that, it still ticks me off that I work for months to get Obsidian, someone learns a glitch, gets enough money to feed all of Kaineng's poor empire. It's BS.
I hope the next update fixes this.

I suppose if u wanted to FFF you could get to the point through a series of quests. Because cant u accept the befriend quest once youve done sunjiang.
so theoretically you would need to be teleported to sunjiang > do the mission with some friendly people > accept the quest to go hzh> teleport to alterum ruins and you should be able to go to hzh and accept befriend quest.
Its quite alot of hastle but it would skip a good proportion of the game. thats if that worked and then assuming you could accept the HFF quests after that
lol i should stop giving ideas away
i was there at the time the glitch first came but as it was fixed i don't know how to do the new glitch. There was a mod who deleted all posts about it the first time around so its no surprise no one knew

I've been reporting people who admit that their "run" is the exploit, screen-shotting the whole conversation.
Hope everyone else is doing the same.

I honestly doubt a.net will ban anybody. Just like when the loophole with getting items into pre searing. They will most likely just give them a slap on the wrist and say don't do it again. And "fix" it again.

Yeah, it is still active, despite the 'fix' Anet said had occurred. I don't know how it WAS done versus how it is being done now, but last night I saw someone selling runs to anywhere for 2k. I asked for a Run to Central Transfer Chamber, got an invite to his guild hall. Never went, as I had already been there, and didn't want/need the run. But at least I cost the guy 100g for the guest invite 
Although I don't think this is anywhere near Duping, it should result in some bans. Not Account bans, just temp bans, like a 72 hour one or something. And only for the people using it, not the people getting the runs done. I won't argue about WHY, but this is bad for the game for several reasons.

u dont need the primaries to do a mission in prophecies and factions. Prophecies let anyone get anywhere and do the mission. factions locked the gates so u couldnt get to the areas without a quest. but if u teleported to the area u could do the mission (go in party with same quest i think works but not sure). nf stopped all of this

Sorry to pee on anyone's happy parade, but I've been doing some testing, you can't do Securing Echovald Forest without doing the storyline primaries first, so...no easy survivor.

So the people using the exploit to get places on their map shouldn't be banned, only the people who helped them?

I only think the people USING the exploit should be temp banned (make sure the temp ban comes fast enough, and lasts long enough to cover the hat handouts
)

Well, this certanly explains why am I seeing "Ferry to Kodash, 5K" advertised in Kamadan. How sexy...and I was working my ass off to get my dervish there for his white Vabbi ~~

The innocent people that are getting the "run" know good and well what it is. They are using the exploit just as much as the person using it with them. They actually have to do the exact same process....enter into a place then resign. It's not like these innocent people accept a party invite then POOF they are there.
People using the exploit to skip the game shouldn't be banned, but the people helping them should. I am thoroughly confused by that logic

It's control. As mentioned, if EVERYONE recieves a ban that has used this, there would be HUGE numbers unable to play the game. Restricting to the ones actually using the exploit makes people stop using it (you'd hope). Since it requires someone to do the run, all runs would stop if the runners couldn't/wouldn't run anymore.
I'd be willing to bet that many of the people getting runs know it is an exploit, but do not know how it is done. I am also willing to bet there are a large number of people who use wiki to see what armor looks like and how much it costs, and where to get it made. Those people do not, however, always know that they way someone is offering to get them there is an exploit.
So although many people getting runs know it is an exploit, not all do. ALL runners know it is an exploit. This way, a mass banning of anyone running or being run with this method means some would get banned 'unfairly'. However, banning only the runners means you are banning everyone 'fairly' since the runners know it is an exploit they are using.

I think a-net needs to focus on fixing this rather than chasing people with bans for doing it.

Banning the person who didn't get the duped item, but letting the person with the duped item go doesn't make sense does it?
Only banning one person in a 2+ person exploit doesn't make sense. It makes even less sense to ban the person who didn't benefit from it.

Ok, accept this guild invite. Now come to my guild hall, then we are going to preview a guild hall, then we both have to resign, then we teleport to the place you never had!
Who the hell could possibly think that is not a glitch?

This sounds great actually... I find it odd you're expected to play the campaign through more than once in the first place to go do things like get armor on another character. The "gated" stuff was a total step backwards in enjoyment.

And for the comment that people don't know that this is an exploit.... Yes, there are people who are stupid, and don't know what is happening. Should they be banned because they did what they were told to do by a runner? Trust me, there are people stupid enough to do anything you tell them to do. Don't believe me? Ask how many people have had accounts stolen because they tried to buy/sell a guild wars account for in game gold.
